10 Boat Rentals in Yorkshire That You Shouldn't Miss

August 24, 2021 Kandra Bartel

Yorkshire (/ˈjɔːrkʃər, -ʃɪər/; abbreviated Yorks), formally known as the County of York, is a historic county of Northern England and the largest in the United Kingdom. Due to its great size in comparison to other English counties, functions have been undertaken over time by its subdivisions, which have also been subject to periodic reform. Throughout these changes, Yorkshire has continued to be recognised as a geographical territory and cultural region. The name is familiar and well understood across the United Kingdom and is in common use in the media and the military, and also features in the titles of current areas of civil administration such as North Yorkshire, South Yorkshire, West Yorkshire and East Riding of Yorkshire.

Snaygill Boats - Canal Boat Hire

Snaygill Boats started back in 1977 with the aim of providing a top quality canal holidays fleet on this loveliest of all canals. We were drawn to the Skipton area by the beauty of the Yorkshire countryside and because the Leeds Liverpool canal is so quiet and unspoilt. A really good narrowboat canal holiday or day trip depends on a lot of things like first class boats, a quiet canal, on the spot owners and staff, on–board tuition, in-person lock training (yes, we meet you at the locks and show you first hand how to use them safely), easy car access with FREE unlimited safe parking and a general atmosphere of helpfulness. Snaygill's position in a major Heritage Area is also a big advantage because there is a lot to see and do here.

Skipton Boat Trips

Our one hour canal trip promises you a guided tour that's fun, informative and relaxing, whatever the weather. Your guide for the canal tour is award-winning comedian Dave Spikey of Phoenix Nights and 8 Out of 10 Cats fame. With his characteristic Northern patter, Dave takes you on a whistle-stop tour of Skipton and canal history that's refreshingly different to your average commentary. For a longer boat experience, we offer a variety of private charters. Enjoy a ploughman’s lunch or afternoon tea perhaps, or join us on one of our fish and chip cruises or brewery tours, as you sail sedately through the Yorkshire countryside. With over 30 years of boat trips we’ve helped lots of satisfied people enjoy a cruise, a meal, celebrate a special occasion, or simply show them the ropes before they set off on their own adventure. So place your Skipton canal trip in our capable hands. We take extra care before, during and after your booking to make your experience more enjoyable.
